Summary/Abstract: Quotations from the Apostle-Book in the “Homily against the Bogomils’ by Presbyter Kosma serve as a basis to draw significant conclusions on the editors” work of the initial Ciril and Methodius translation, carried out in Preslav in the 10th century during Tsar Symeon’s reign (893–927) and that of his successor Tsar Peter (927–969). Presbyter Kosma uses quotations from the second version of the Apostle-Book. Hence, it existed a long time before the “Homily against the Bogomils” was written. The lexical unity of the above-mentioned second version with a number of Preslav literary monuments of the Golden Age of the Old-Bulgarian literature indicates that it originates at the same time. Probably, the second version has been done in Preslav when the „Apostle-Book with Interpretations” was compiled. The text of the latter does not fully and everywhere substitute the liturgical Apostle-Book.
